South Africa. Scenic wonders surround you as you pass through the

Blyde River Canyon, made mostly of red sandstone and known as

one of Africa's greatest natural wonders. Set against the triple

mountain formation of the Three Rondovals, resembling traditional

round houses of the indigenous people, the canyon is the third largest

in the world. Along this magnificent route you will also see Bourke’s

Luck Potholes, the dramatic natural cylinders shaped by millions of

years of natural erosion caused by fast-flowing sand-filled waters.

This evening, enjoy a traditional BOMA dinner under the stars,

where you may sample some local game meat! (B, D)

National Park. (B, L, D)

local flora and fauna during a leisurely paced nature walk. Enjoy

lunch amongst the ancient milkwood trees – so called because of their

white latex sap – before your return cruise. This afternoon, visit

beautiful harborside city. Cape Town celebrates its noted architecture

that fuses the traditions of the French, German and Dutch. Enjoy a

thrilling ride on a cable car as it whisks you to an altitude of more

than 3,000 feet, landing atop the aptly named – and flat-topped –

Table Mountain.** The views of Cape Town, Robben Island and

Lion’s Head will leave you breathless. Return to the city via Table
